Interviewed Nov 2010 in Columbus, OH (took 3 months)
I first came into contact with Nationwide at a career fair. After an on-site interview at the fair, I waited one month before a phone interview was scheduled with the hiring manager. A few weeks later, I was asked to come to Columbus for a series of 1:1 interviews. In total, I met with 9 individuals before I was offered the job.

Interviewed May 2011 in Columbus, OH (took 2 days)
I interviewed for an internship. The first person I interviewed with worked with the architecture department. The second person i interviewed with worked with applications development--this is where I accepted a position. Approximately two weeks later, I received a phone call from talent acquisition. I worked as a contractor and my paycheck was distributed by a company called Innosource. Innosource did a background check and a drug test.

Interviewed Nov 2010 in Columbus, OH (took 1+ week)
A phone interview was conducted with three people in a conference call to talk about the company and their current project for which they were looking for a new hire.
They asked about my experience in a recent position and asked some questions about Object Oriented Programming principles (adamant that there were four of them -- they were looking for textbook responses, but the responses they confided to me they were looking for were a bit overlapping). They were also interested in frameworks that I've had experience with.
The face to face interview was with the same three people and the manager. A similar process of asking about programming principles took place, and we discussed the architecture of the project once more.
I was later informed that they wouldn't be able to hire me due to budget concerns.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Columbus, OH (took a day)
Did a resume drop and video questions, then was asked to go to Columbus for final-rounds. The interviews were pretty relaxed - 1 group interview, 1 group presentation, 1 case interview and 1 technical interview (on basic financial concepts and the current state of the market). Nothing too difficult, but also not easy to distinguish yourself from the other interviewees.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Columbus, OH (took 3 months)
Interviewed with two subordinates of hiring manager. Questions asked pertained to how I like dealing with people, how I work with others, how I can handle repetitive tasks. It would have required obtaining a FNRA Series 6 license, which I was interested in obtaining.

Reason for Declining
Salary was lower than my current salary, call center conditions were loud and cramped, it would have required buying a car.

Interviewed Aug 2009 in Columbus, OH (took 6+ weeks)
I was applying for a new job internally. So I didn't have to do any drug or background tests - those were done when I originally interviewed several years ago. The first round of interviews was with the hiring manager and the internal client I would be supporting. The second round was with the hiring manager's boss and two more people from the internal client's area. The hiring manager and internal client were clearly not on the same page or looking for the same thing from candidates. In the end, the person they hired appealed more to the internal client.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Columbus, OH (took a day)
The interview was in-person, on campus at my school. It was for an MBA-level internship in marketing. Interviewer was nice, though she was a younger person from HR, so I unfortunately was not able to ask any real questions about their marketing strategy on anything more than a meta-level. Overall it was good; all fit, no case.
